The "Endolithic Process"

In The American Art, there is an in
teresting account of the practice of new
art in this country, but like most of the
arts, II is nothing more than the revival
Of an art profusely practiced by the
Greeks, as the remains Of their temples
testify. This art consists in the ability To
apply Colors Of certain manufacture TO
stone, and is called the "endolithic pro-
cess" To apply color successfully to
stone it must be made to sink below the
surface without spreading. The means Of
accomplishing this has been found and, as
a result, interiors of marble can be tinted
in myriads Of colors if desired. A general
application of the art to the funereal mar

WISE WORDS.

He is a great man who can sacrifice ev-
erything and say nothing.
Truth is as impossible to be soiIed by
any outward touch as the sunbeam.
1t is much easier for an ill-natured man
than a kind one to be smart and witty.
Home is the one sweet thing on earth
but home is built not of stones, but of
hearts.
Greed is meant to tell on conduct.
Character is the last outcome and test of
doctrine.
Opinions altar, manners change. Creeds
rise and fall, but the moral law is written
on tablets of eternity.
Some people think of the petition -
"Thy will be done" as coming into their
lives only when they have troubles or
losses.
Beautiful souls often get put into plain
bodies but they cannot be hidden, and
have power all their own, the greater
for the Inconsistencies or the humility
that gives it grace.
To act with common sense, according
to the moment, is the best wisdom
know, and the best philosophy to do ones
duties, take the world as it comes, submit
respectfully to ones lot, bless the good
ness which has given us much happiness
with it, whatever it is, and despise af-
fectation.
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1887-02-28
Cut Straw For Bedding.

Bedding is used to retain bodily
heat and TO save animal eXcrement.
For both these purposes straw is good.
Straw Is a very poor conductor
of heat. Its substance is a poor con-
ductor; and it holds in and among its
culms bodies of impure and of still
air, which are also poor conductors.
Straw is also good absorbent. But it
is so coarse that a good part of the
urine of the animals is apt to pass
through it before being absorbed.
This can be prevented only by cut
ting the straw. This brings the clums
closer together, making the mass
more compact, hence the urine can
not pass through so readily, and all
of it is absorbed. Cutting the straw
also makes it poorer conductor of
heat. for this makes the bodies of
still air smaller and increases their
number correspondingly, when cut,
the straw more readily rots in the
compost heap and straw mixed with
the excrement of the animals and
thoroughly rotted in the compost
heap, makes excellent manure
